I am honestly speechless by this story. It's a story that I've been wanting to tell for 7 years, and finally, I DID IT!
Papua Island is a wild place, to say the least. In many ways, it's considered 'the last frontier' in terms of off-the-beaten-path places on earth. And I went there completely alone, in search of the world's last humans who eat other humans. It's the last known place on earth to have this kind of bizarre culture and tradition.
Papua Island is (politically) split into two halves. The Western half is a part of Indonesia, while the Eastern half is Papua New Guinea, an independent country. I showed up in West Papua, all alone, and had to figure out how I was going to travel deep into the jungle to meet the tribe.
After a massive logistical nightmare (see my BTS video on my 2nd channel linked above), I ended up making it to the tribe where I spent 2 days, and it was absolutely incredible to learn about their unique way of life.
I'd love to hear your feedback on this story because my team and I put A LOT of time, effort, and energy into it -- and I think it's the future for this channel. If you are reading this, I am doing a contest where the 'most liked' or creative comment will win a prize - so feel free to share your thoughts!
I love you guys, and cheers to the first video of 2023! I hope you have a happy, successful, and adventurous year full of amazing travels and positive vibes. More stories coming soon!

As a Papuan, Thank you for step in and showing this documentary of my people to another area of the world. We (as indigenous people) are very kind and very welcome towards new people as long as you are with another local and being accepted by the head of the tribe.. If you come with good intentions, The mother earth of Papua will be with you. I want to highlight that "not all tribe eat human in Papua", Most of them already are getting influenced by Church, so they are more open to outsiders. Again, Thanks alot drew. Hope you'll be visiting again for another amazing tribe in Papua! 💕

[@SparkingLife111]

U mention Church, do u mean a religious church? Who do they worship now is there a spirit or god or something they believe in? How do they think we come into existence as humans on earth? I'm not sure you know the answers I'm just curious I thought I would ask thanks in advance for any information

@@SparkingLife111 We have a lot of tribes here, each area land have their own native tribe.. What drew mention is in South Papua, the area between Asmat Tribe (the famous one), Muyu Tribe. I am from Mee Tribe (Ekari Tribe), from Our Grandparents used to tell us that they used to believe that there is superior spirit that watching us, it impact on how they lived like certain social values based on how they believe the ancestor respond. For example "They don't steal from somebody's garden, they will have skin diseases because the God is watching or you can't have intercourse outside of *Marriage* if other people in the tribe find out, they will hanging them and shoot them with arrow because both of girl and boy violet the laws as the tribe believe", They don't have the kind of rituals like you see in the movie. Of course, it happened before Missionaries and Government came. And different tribe has different story. For now, most of the tribes here is have a taste of Christian Values, Catholic value, also Islamic Value. But also some of them still hold their cultural values as well.. the influenced by those making most of tribe here open to the modern world/people. I hope this help.

@@dswag8495 If technology advances overtake human evolutionary progress it causes destruction and devastation. It has been tried in the past and does not workout. You have to let it develop naturally. There is a reason why one of the tribes he visited is not practicing cannibalism. Eventually the tribe that practices cannibalism will subside naturally or both tribes would be wiped wiped out eventually as it happened in humans history during evolution. If you just start giving them technology advances from the outside and disregard their current state of living they will be in for pain and destruction for the next generations. Neither to them nor to us it would be helpful.

This idea of exploiting is a weird concept. Any time we enjoy another culture we are said to be exploiting it.

If people are confused this tribe is called Momuna tribe, which is correct is somewhat similar with Korowai (they live in tree houses too). That means Drew may actually went to Yahukimo regency (The name is from Yali, Hubla, Kimyal and Momuna, four big tribes here) in Highland Papua. Definitely not a safe place. Kalo ada yang bingung ini suku apa ini namanya suku Momuna di Yahukimo (yang namanya berasal dari Yali, Hubla, Kimyal, Momuna, empat suku besar disini). Momuna memang mirip dengan Korowai karena mereka bikin rumah pohon berbeda dengan suku lain yang lebih bikin rumah mirip honai.

My father was stationed in New Guinea during WW2. He said that one day, he and a couple of soldiers went for a walk off base even though that was prohibited. They ended up getting chased back to the base by cannibals. My father said that one of the soldiers feet got caught in mud and the soldier was so scared that his feet came right out of the boots and he kept running back to base.

Even though an uncertain beginning, this story finished with an incredible adventure. I can not imagine how was living in fear of being eaten but then finding that these people were not too different from us just closer to our Pachamama. Congrats this became one of my favorite videos.👏😊👏

[@jurriaanvanderlinden3605]

Beautiful video Drew! My grandparents were one of the first visitors as tourists on Papua land. They visited the Corowai and 35 to 40 years ago. They made lots of photos and even made a videotape, so everyone could see it back home. Back then, those people didn't wear shorts. It was a hollowed root shived iver the male privates and women wore skirts from straw. They brought me a real bow and some of their poisoned arrows back with the warning to never touch the tip. Still have them in my possession. This tribe also cut off fingers from people who did harm to others or stole stuff. I can imagine that they also ate those parts. Thank you for bringing back memories💜

[@dantenouye]

Hi bro @Drew Binsky. This is my second critique to you because you made this video with your limited knowledge about West Papua and Papuan. The word and phrase that I want to critiques are the word “Canibalism”, “CANIBALISM… But still ONE ISLAND where it is practice these days”. The questions are have you seen those people practice Canibalism in front of your both eyes? If so upload one of the canibalism practice video then? If they are cannibalist then you already eaten by them. You just an idiot KZbinr. Have you read the history or articles about Canibalism practice in Wet Papua? Or Don Richardson book? If you have a video about those people practice canibalism than you can upload it. If not then how confident are you using word of Canibalism in your opening video? Hi bro let me tell you something: Did you aware that you spread a negative mindset or image to the world community that Papuan are cannibalsts? you just using the word of cannibals for your lust and interest? Cos you will have a lot of benefit in your bank account when many people whatche, coments, like and subscribed. It’s seem like you made island of Papua/an as an object for your benefit. I suggest that You must be careful use the word of “canibalism” because you put Papua/an as in negative side, and you don’t give them anything, you took a lot of benefit from them (you are a stealer), whereas you are degrading dignity of Papua/an. (That what white people do until now in West papua: FreePort In Timika and BP in Bintuni) I want to teach you here: You must know first that West Papua has more than 250 tribes and 400 languages. Each of tribes has different way of life. Long time ago only 2/3 tribes in Papua were practiced canibalims but not to day. “NOT TO DAY”. There are some KINGMI & Reformed Churches there and schools in Koroway. The Coroway people now practice Christian life. Those people normally go to churches every Sunday and their children go to schools every day. I have a Momuna tribe friend here in New Zealand, He just finished his master degree (civilised). actually Koroway people using clothes in their everyday life not like in this KZbin., they using traditional costumes because @Drew Binsky want to made a video on KZbin. (That’s okey you have freedom to do anything as far as Koroway people like your mission but your biggest mistake is you spread out fake information that they still practice canibalims, this sound sad you put them in hell). My conclusion is: this is a kind of neo colonialism. Hope you can make any changes in this video.

They were joking about being cannibals still.. There is a reason ... While the disease hit the Fore people, everyone in Papua knows, that eating human flesh can spread the epidemic of disease, highlighted by en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuru_(disease)

[@BitsofEurope]

Great you ventured in there and gave them the respect due despite the sensationalist title. I grew up in Papua New Guinea to the East and spent 17 years there, speak both common languages and travelled all over the country including to tribes that only had first contact with Europeans in the 1950's, especially in the Highlands. I also had many West Papuan friends and have been to Jayapura as well. My father was an anthropological film maker and spent 35 years in PNG documenting the culture and I spent lengthy periods with him on location living in villages, swimming, climbing coconuts, eating sago, yams etc. Big part of my life and yes there is a lot to learn from tribes like that. One thing you find in Melanesia is that by our terms they have little, but they actually have a better stress free life in the village, always smile and will always welcome you and give you what they have. I do get annoyed about titles that hint at current practices of cannibalism etc, as do many Melanesians when people use these titles. Simply not a practice anymore. As I said, I like that you didn't push that narrative and gave it context by saying the practice, if it still occurs, is associated with tribal warfare and ritual pay back and witchcraft and sorcery. Papua New Guinea still has sections in its laws and constitution to do with sorcery. If you ever need any contacts in PNG to get you anywhere and want to hook up with my dads old colleagues who work at the National Film Institute in Goroka, which he built and developed and are all PNGean film makers, let me know. They are also the authority in PNG who issue commercial film permits to people wishing to make larger scale commercial content.
